Mix everything together except for the butter. Slowly stir in the melted butter and pour into a greased 9x13 pan. For the topping, mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Drop evenly over the batter and swirl with a knife. Bake at 350 for 28-32 minutes.

Hey! You just changed up your blog design!! I was just on your cilantro lime corn post, now I popped on this Oh-my-gosh-so yummy cinnamon roll cake post, and your blog is different- LOL! The blog looks good, but this cake looks AMAZING! Must try very soon! Thanks for posting, Laurie! :) ~Jen http://happyplaceforjen.blogspot.com/

I'm one of your newest followers because of this delicous(!)looking recipe that I happened upon at Pinterest. I'm more from "the South" so I'm hoping to find some more new recipe ideas here!Blessings,Leslie

DELICIOUS! Made it Friday and ate it Saturday morning. It was definitely the best right out of the oven, but still SO good in the morning! AND it really was SO easy! I had everything in my cupboards already! If you haven't made this, try it!

got this off of pinterest...made the cake and it is so moist and flavorfull...i cheated on the icing and i opened a can of cream cheese whipped icing and melted it in microwave so i could drizzle it on top of cake...yummo

OMGosh!!! AMAZING is all I can say. If the cake tastes anything like the batter, then I can kiss this diet goodbye! ;) It is in the oven right now...I can't wait to try it. My husband and our daughter (3 years old) fought over who got to lick what.....the beater, the spatula, or the knife. Thank you for the wonderful recipe, I too found it on Pintrest.

I too, got the recipe off Pinterest. It looked too good not to make. It's in the oven now. I thought the cake batter was quite thick for cake. I wonder if I did something wrong. I'm an experienced baker, and I followed the directions to a T. I will just have to see how it turned out when it comes out of the oven. I added 1/2 tsp. of baking soda and used buttermilk instead of the milk. I always substitute buttermilk for milk and haven't had a failure yet. Maybe that's what made the batter so thick? I found it hard to swirl the topping in. Any advice from those who have made it?

I've made this same recipe before a few times, but last time I used a third of the amount of butter called for in the cinnamon topping, and liked it better. Way too much, for me at least, the way it is written.

I do not even know what Pinterest is. But the recipe looked delicious so it is in the oven, and the batter is yummy. My topping wasn't swirlable either so maybe won't be as pretty but it should still taste great, eh? Thank you for the recipe.

Found on Pinterest! Hi! Love the recipe. But i made it and it was real think batter. And it was hard to swril the knife threw. Is that how it is supposed to be? I cooked it and it took alog time and it was real dark on top . I dont know what i did maybe the Altitude? I live in Idaho.? thanks it is still good :)

Found this on pinterest and I'm so excited! I have been looking for a cinnamon roll cake recipe b/c last Christmas a doctor friend of ours had a patient that made him one and he shared it with us! Holy cow, my husband and I couldn't get enough, we were hooked! So I have been trying to find one and as soon as I came across the picture I was totally freakin out! ;) I'm going to make it tomorrow!! Thanks for sharing!!

Found you on pinterest too. My dad has been a pinterest hater until today. He tried this recipe(which he found on pinterest) and we all LOVE it, including him!!! Thanks for bringing him over into the "dark side" of pinterest!

Thanks so much for sharing this recipe! I made this for a carry in for bosses day and everyone loved it so much that I almost didn't get a piece myself! So yummy, my family is now begging for me to make it again for them to eat!

this was so D-LISH, i'm so glad i got to taste it. I have a family of 3... my husband and daughter couldnt even wait for the glaze. They drizzeled the glaze after they served themselve. thank you for sharing =)

I found this pan on sinful deliciousness on pinterest! I just made this and it left me and my family speechless! I am amazed that something as quick and easy to make is SO amazing! Thank you so much for sharing! This is so totally going to blow my diet! Heck, I am new to pinterest and everything that I have made is wonderful! My new addiction!

Found you as well on Pinterest...Had to make it the very next day and Oh my goodness it was so moist, rich and tasted just like a cinnamon bun. Even my son who doesn't usually like cake loved it!!! Thank you!

Yep...another pinterest stalker! My attempt is baking away right this minute! My husband used the last of our milk for cereal before I could make the glaze! TYPICAL MAN! So I'm having to use sour cream, fingers crossed!

Terrific recipe. My friend shared this with me, and I got a call we were having unexpected company dropping in. Whipped this up and served it warm out of the oven. Believe me, it was a hit. Will definitely be making this often in the future. Nice quick, easy-to-follow recipe. My husband likes it warmed up with apple sauce drizzled over it!!

I just made it. I baked it for the 30 mins it called for but the inside was still undercooked. Is it supposed to be gooey? I gave my boys a piece and put it back in the oven for a few more minutes. It does taste yummy. I am thinking of letting the boys have a piece for breakfast with milk and some fruit.

It's in the oven right now. I came over here to see if anyone else still had a completely gooey middle after the recommended baking time? I wish I had thought to read the comments before I started - - I definitely would have cut back on the butter!

i tried this recipe in a electric oven for the 28 minutes and turned out perfect. i then made it again a couple days later and baked it in my sisters oven (which is gas) and it was gooey in thr middle so i'm not sure if the gas stove has anything to do with the peoples that turned out gooey or not.

Have you ever mixed it up the night before (except the glaze) and refrigerated over-night? Then baked the next day? I love doing things like this for family holidays - if I can do most of the "work" the day/night before! Thanks!

Pintrist rules! I made this tonight for the whole family; everyone's visiting for Thanksgiving. What a hit! I had to cook it a bit longer though, about 45 minutes. But it was well worth the wait... plus the house smelled delicious! Thanks

I'm a Pinaholic and just found this! I am going to try these on Thanksgiving morning. I usually make my own cinnamon rolls, but these look much easier! If they are as good as everyone says, I may be featuring them on my own blog for Christmas morning! (With your permission, of course!) Thanks for sharing! Monica@tiztheseason.wordpress.com

I halved the recipe and used gluten free AP flour and powdered egg replacer. Turned out wonderful! I was scared because at the end of cooking time it still looked like liquid, but after cooling it firmed up. Delicious! The BEST GF, DF, EF recipe for a "cinnamon roll" EVER!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you...and my 9 yr old son with multiple allergies thanks you.

My husband is a man of very little comment and even he said "Oh, that really looks good. You better make that."!! I'm making it this week for a family Christmas gathering this Saturday! Can't wait to try it. I might have to make two...one to eat here at home and one for the gathering! :o) Thank you for the recipe!!

I brought this to work this morning and it was a HUGE hit! I have an insulated carrier with hot packs in it, so still warm even after my 45 min commute! I'm my co-workers new best friend! I did everything last night except mix it up with the butters & liquid. Had all my dry ingredients ready in a mixing bowl, the topping mix ready, pan greased, etc. Made it easier for someone who is not a "morning person" by nature. Love it! This will be our Christmas morning meal. Along with candy from the Stockings! Calories don't count on Christmas morning!

My dream of hosting my own cooking show is becoming a reality today!! I'm a librarian at a high school in Oklahoma and the Foods Teacher has asked me to prepare something for her class. In searching for yummy recipes, I came across yours! Thank you for posting pictures. The kids are going to LOOOOVE this!!! Angel from Oklahoma

I was so exited to see this! My son loves cinnamon rolls, but usually isn't too crazy about cake. We haven't had too much luck with candles in the rolls. Glad I found this as his birthday is in 2 weeks!

Cinnamon Rolls are something we eat nearly every weekend for breakfast or snack. This recipe sounds so delicious I'm making it for us tonight for dessert. Maybe some will survive until breakfast....lol. I can hardly wait to taste it because the picture looks divine. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

Hi! Found via Pinterest, too.One question....when I put the topping it goes down in the batter....is it correct? The cake is in teh oven right now but I'm afraid it wasn't done properly...maybe I will try again tomorrow...any suggestion greately appreciated ;-)

Made this tonight for a Christmas party and it was such a huge hit!! I do believe next time I will reduce the butter in the topping. It seemed to make the bottom of the cake very greasy. But otherwise it came out perfect. I cooked it for 35 mins which was spot on. Thanks for the recipe!

Made these this morning but turned them into muffins instead of 9x13 pan. They cooked in about 25 min. and I put approx. 1 heaping TBL of struesel in each muffin. I then topped them with the glaze and they're incredible! 24 muffins.

last night my kids pointed out to me that I didn't buy our traditional cinn rolls to have for Christmas breakfast. I printed out this recipe (had wanted to try it). I mixed everything for the cake, except for the butter, put it in the fridge. I then mixed up the cinn. mixture, except for the butter, covered and left it on the counter. I then measured out the powdered sugar and sat it aside. This a.m. when I got up I stirred the batter, added the butter and poured into pan. I then added the butter to the cinn. mix. and added it to the batter. It did take about 40 min. for it to get done. I then added the rest to the glaze. It came out so good and I was glad I did most of the work last night. We just spooned on the glaze as we ate it (my dad prefers it w/o glaze). I will make this for sure to take to school one day.

Like most everyone else, I found the recipe on Pinterest. We made it to go along with our xmas morning stuff, and it was a HUGE hit. My mother in law requested the recipe, hahaha. Thanks for posting it! It's made the list for next year's xmas morning feast.

I made this cake for a Christmas party with ladies from my church. I'm known for making good stuff and I ran out of time and ingredients for some of my usual recipes. I decided to check out Pinterest and saw the cake and decided I just had to do it. I wasn't disappointed and neither were any of the ladies! They all loved it and I shared the recipe. Thank you for some new yumminess!

Found this on Pinterest and wanted to try it but I have one small question first. I assume with adding the baking powder the flour would be all-purpose? I know this can be a big deal and just wanted to double check. Thanks :)

I made this on Christmas Eve for us to enjoy on Christmas morning while we unwrapped our presents. It was so easy I thought I missed a step. It was also very very delicious. I will be making it again tonight to bring in to the office tomorrow for my co workers to enjoy. Thanks for the recipe!

Well, of course I found this on Pinterest and made it for 2 different Christmas gatherings. It was a hit at both....

I baked both at the same time; one in a metal pan and one in glass dish (both 9x13). The one in the metal pan was done in less time than required; the glass dish took approximately 40 minutes. Honestly, the glass dish cake was 'prettier' on top and more moist but both were excellent. In fact, I finished off the last piece from the metal pan this morning and it was STILL moist :) Two thumbs up.

I made this for Christmas morning. It was wonderful! However, I found that my topping ended up at the bottom of the pan. Was I supposed to turn it out onto a platter before icing it? It was gooey and stuck to the bottom of the pan. I think that I will try turning it out next time. DELICIOUS though.

I love cinnamon rolls and have since I was a kid, but they are too time consuming to make. This recipe looked delicious and simple enough to try. I just made it and OH MY GOODNESS! It's more delicious than any cinnamon roll I've ever had. Me and three kids ate half of it. Thank you for sharing!

Happy New Year to ME! LOVE this. My 10 year old son made it for treats tonight...even my food snob husband LOVED it...Thanks. (oh yeah, found it on Pinterest...now my hubby can't complain about the time I spend searching on it.)

I made these for a brunch on New Years day and everyone loved them. I took the rest to my daughter and she called after I left and said she ate one piece and before she knew it had eaten half of another. lol...Needless to say I will be making these again and again!

I just made this tonight after I saw it on Pinterest. It. Is. AMAZING! My boyfriend almost flipped. We ate some for dessert tonight--heated in the microwave with a scoop of Butter Pecan ice cream on top! Out of this world!

Lots of people asked...Can this recipe be made overnight and baked in the AM? I made the recipe yesterday afternoon, stuck it in the 'frige, and woke up this AM and baked it. I had to bake for 45 minutes. I even had the glaze made beforehand as well and had it chillin' in a separate bowl with the cake. It makes your whole house smell WONDERFUL as it bakes!! My hubby requested more glaze on it, so I'm gonna do a double batch of glaze next time I make this recipe. Hope that helps ya'll.

made this today, yummy. also from pintrest. I do wish I had read the reviews b/c I agree 100% cut the topping either in half or less butter in it, it was too 'runny' once cooking/melting and left big spots in the cake once all that butter was melted. Also, not swirlable. Still very Yummy, not pretty though.
